Love Is
The Third Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When this cruel world tears us apart
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When sharpened words have left their scars
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
How deep and how wide is your love
It never stops, it rages on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When I am tired and so afraid
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
When darkness falls and my vision fades
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
And it's always burning and stirring my soul
To know you and love you much more
It never stops or ever fades
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
Oh, it's never gonna stop
Oh, it's flowing from my heart
Oh, it's never gonna fade
Your fire will light my way
When all my strength and hope is gone
Your love is like a rock that I am standing on
Oh, it's never gonna stop
Oh, it's flowing from my heart
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
Your love is like a rock that I am standing on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
Your love is like a rock that I am standing on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
The song "Love Is" by The Third is a heartfelt ballad that expresses the singer's devotion to their partner. The central metaphor of the song is the comparison between love and a river flowing from the heart. This metaphor is used to describe the enduring nature of love and the way that it can sustain us through difficult times.
The first verse sets up the metaphor with the lines "Your love is like a river flowing from my heart". This image of love as a river that flows endlessly from within the singer's heart is a powerful one, and it sets the emotional tone for the rest of the song. The second verse expands on the metaphor with lines like "It never stops, it rages on / Your love is like a river flowing from my heart". Here, the singer emphasizes the unstoppable, relentless power of their love.
Throughout the song, the singer turns to other metaphors to describe the various ways in which their partner's love sustains them. For example, in the chorus, they describe love as a fire that will light their way through darkness. This image of love as a guiding light helps to reinforce the sense of comfort and security that the singer finds in their relationship. Later in the song, they describe love as a rock that they can stand on when their strength and hope are gone. This line emphasizes the role that love plays in giving us a sense of stability and grounding in the face of life's challenges.
